Scrap Strip Halloween Card

Every card maker and/or scrapbooker has tons of small thin scrap strips of paper. Don’t throw them out! With this colorful scrap strip Halloween card we put them to good use. Of course, vary the greeting and color theme and this idea can be turned into an thoughtful handmade greeting card for nearly any occasion.

Instructions

Gather a bunch of small strips of scrap paper. Cut into roughly the size you want them to be, angling the top and bottom cuts on a slight diagonal. You can do this quickly with scissors.

There's no need to measure. You don't want the strips too uniform.

Spread glue on the back side of the greeting piece. Glue strips onto the this piece so that they extend from the top and bottom. Apply more glue and attach the entire piece -- greeting and strips to card.
